Try without IPSEC first to make sure you have the l2tp portion correct.
Also, make sure no firewall rules are getting in the way.

I have this simple mpd5 config file to act as an l2tp server in my test
environment


startup:
        # configure mpd users
        set user admin xxx admin
        # configure the console
        set console self 127.0.0.1 5005
        set console open
        # configure the web server
        set web self 192.168.255.254 5006
        set web open
        log +IPV6CP
        log +IPV6CP2

default:
        load l2tpserver



l2tpserver:
# Define dynamic IP address pool.
        set ippool add pool1 xx.159.245.1 xx.159.245.5
        set ippool add pool1 10.241.241.20 10.241.241.99
        set ippool add rfc1918 172.11.22.140 172.11.22.180



# Create clonable bundle template named B
        create bundle template B
        set iface idle 1800
        set iface enable tcpmssfix
        set ipcp disable vjcomp
        set bundle enable ipv6cp
        set ipcp deny vjcomp
        set ipcp ranges xx.43.128.6/32 ippool pool1
        set ipcp dns yy.211.164.51 zz.212.134.12
        #set ipcp nbns 127.0.0.1
# Set bundle template to use
        create link template L l2tp
        set l2tp hostname sentex
        set l2tp disable dataseq
        set link action bundle B
# Enable peer authentication
        set link disable eap
        set link enable pap
        set link disable acfcomp
        set link disable protocomp
        set link disable check-magic
        set link deny acfcomp
        set link keep-alive 10 60
        set link deny protocomp
        #load radius
        set link mtu 1492
        set link mru 1492
        set link enable incoming
        set link disable peer-as-calling




For the client, mpd5 works with the following config

l2tp_client:
#
# PPPoE client: only outgoing calls, auto reconnect,
# ipcp-negotiated address, one-sided authentication,
# default route points on ISP's end
#

        create bundle static B1
        set iface route default
        set ipcp ranges 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0

        create link static L1 l2tp
        set link action bundle B1
        set auth authname testaccount-in-mpd-secret-file
        set auth password thepass
        set link max-redial 0
        set link mtu 1460
        set link keep-alive 20 75
        set l2tp peer 64.7.128.195
        open

Thats ok. Its not an issue and is more informational than anything

Make sure there are no firewall rules getting in the way.  And if
possible, use a client that you know "works".  The above server works
with Windows clients with IPSEC disabled.  Start there, or with a
FreeBSD client.
